1. Introduction

This page is for supplementary information relating to the implementation described in Section 2.1 of the Installer's Note. It may be augmented over the life-time of the product if further pertinent information becomes available.

2. Applicability

This implementation is a compiled, tested, ready-to-use version of the NAG C Library that is considered suitable for operation on the computer systems detailed below:

hardware:         Intel Core i7-3770 3.4 GHz
operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Edition
C compiler:       Intel(R) C++ Compiler Version 15.0.1.148 Build 20141023
vendor library:   Intel MKL version 11.2.1
compiler options: -O3 -fp:precise -QaxAVX,SSE2 -auto

hardware:          Intel x64 systems and compatible
operating system:  Microsoft Windows 64-bit editions (XP / Vista / 7 / 8 and compatible)
C compiler:        Intel 64-bit C++ Compiler version 15.0 and compatible
                   Microsoft 64-bit C/C++ compiler version 17.00 or compatible

3. Test Platforms

This implementation has also been successfully tested using the following:

hardware:         Intel Core i7-3770 3.4 GHz
operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Edition
C compiler:       Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler
                  Version 17.00.60315.1 for x64

hardware:         Intel Core i7-3770 3.4 GHz
operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Edition
C compiler:       Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler
                  Version 16.00.40219.01 for x64

Note: This list is not exhaustive; other combinations of hardware, operating system and compiler may also work.

4. Accessing the NAG C Library 64-bit DLLs from various environments

Detailed information on calling the DLLs and examples of usage are available for various programming environments including:

Visual Basic header files containing declare statements for each function are also available for download:

5. Limitations with Visual Studio 2015

Due to Microsoft refactoring the run-time libraries in Visual Studio 2015, the NAG static libraries in this product will only work with older versions of Visual Studio. Unfortunately, the legacy_stdio_definitions.lib file provided by Microsoft does not supply all the missing symbols required.

A possible workaround would be to link to the NAG dynamic link libraries (DLLs) provided in this product instead of the static libraries, as these are unaffected by the change. See Section 3.1 of the Users' Note for information on linking with the DLLs.

NAG has produced new implementations to work with Visual Studio 2015; the equivalent VS2015-compatible Library to this one is CLW6I25DEL.
